The club will do what it wants, when it wants, Previous examples Atyeo STS relocated for family section. SS STS moved to expand family section. No consultation just done, and yes I was affected both times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to make the kids feel part of it not bloody miles away from it! Because I think it would be an opportunity to sell cheaper tickets in there and have more quid a kid games etc, why wouldn't they feel part of it? Done right and that whole corner, inside and outside the stand could be made kid friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they said right everyone in S19 you gotta ship out then the least I'd expect is to be given priority on a seat transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Please can I just point out that any thoughts of making Lower Dolman standing areas will affect views from A10 (Ian Cottle Wheelchair Area) and A11, for wheelchair users and their carers.

Dave Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Good, but I just wanted to make sure that concerns of a wheelchair user were not ignored, and I know that this has been suggested before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original plan was for there to be safe standing in the lower Dolman due to the Rugby lot wanting to stand on the side of the pitch. Until safe standing is allowed you have nothing to worry about.

Monkeh Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Always winners and losers in moving fans but the atyeo doesn't work it never has, when the closed the east end you couldn't hear the atyeo even with the band trying to drum up sound the acoustics in the south stand are far superior even giving the singers a corner, you will hear them better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will mean that if S82 are moved to the South Stand then they will be expected to pay the going rate for a season ticket - I'm not sure that will stack up.

Be fair. S82 have never asked for cheap tickets, they got cheap tickets because they were in a crap part of the stadium. So if the proposal is to move them to the SS, you'd imagine they'll be paying market rate for those seats, plus any fall in 'family revenue' this move might cost. Just look at the sports bar, turns away paying customers every week so that SCAT can have their under-used area upstairs and they pay market rate for the facilities... Oh, hang on a minute....

Um sorry but the upstairs area in the sports bar hasn't been dedicated to the Supporters Club and Trust since last season. They've given it to Lansdown Club members. Just wanted to clear that up.

One is for match day guests, one for mascots, the big room has kids parties in it every game, and then we're in the other. We're waiting for the go ahead to go back into the bar within the Dolman that was the supporters club bar for years. We've got to spend money getting it back into a proper state because it was basically the contractors dumping ground whilst the redevelopment was going on. This isn't likely to happen this season now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
